There is a huge reason why Phantasy Star 3 is a black sheep. It was developed by an entirely different team of devs just brought in to quickly hammer out the project in 6 months, with just the same producer/director as before. It was originally a bunch of mini stories that they strung together into a narrative..

Supposidely, Pokemon Battle Revolution was going to have a single player portion like Colosseum and Gale of Darkness and much more content, as well as a full rentable roster of the 493 critters just like Stadium 1 & 2 did, but were told to scrap most of those features to reach somewhere close to the launch window of the Diamond and Pearl games.

And he replied, "yes". Took it home got happy happy when both the game and demo worked, then got disappointed when I realized of the quality of their respective contents, eventually got an old beaten up double disc case for it and have in the colllection, well, since I really dig characters like Samus, Sarah Bryant and Rachel from NG/DOA, guess I have a thing for tall, blonde and gorgeous kickass women, just saying.

I’m glad he sayed he loved RE 5. RE 5 is actually awesome and it’s also one of the great co op games ever made. I beat it with my 13 year old nephew a few months back and he loved it so much he wanted to play the rest of the franchise with me. Unfortunately 5 is the only co op but man did they nail. Also mercenary more was fantastic

I miss Lost Planet 2, it had one of (if not the best) Turret Levels, the Giant Sandworm fight on the Dreadnought cannon Train. Loading Ammo (and empowering if you took a extra second) Aiming the Cannon Repairing Able to use the Mini-Helicopters to fly around and unload bullets onto the weak points. So playing it in co-op was great, the AI will sometimes load the cannon but not reliably.

Me and a friend managed to clear that stage before the patch nerfed the difficulty. The current difficulty is so easy compared to the original where your character would get knocked off their feet constantly and you died by falling off the train fairly often. So much so that you had to see when the bug was going to hit the train and jump to stay alive. I miss that franchise.

3 was one of the best games I played last year. I remember liking it on PS2 but didn't click with me like lets say Dragon Quest 8. But game was super fun and interesting and i loved getting lost in it. Twist at the end didn't take away anything. Didn't affect anything. Just was an interesting discovery. If you played the game for 20 plus hours and all of a sudden think because of that, nothing matters, that's a personal problem. Or whatever reason people hated it. I don't freaking know lol

@@amirgarcia547 The problem is that the models are on the Switch and they looked worse than the ones on the Wii. I have no problem with reusing models, but at least make them look better on the stronger hardware. Not to mention that they outright lied about the models being new in order to quell the outrage of dexit. It really doesn't matter if the models are reused or not, the important thing is that they should at least look good. Sakurai was reusing assets from Smash 4 to make Smash Ultimate, and no one cared because the models still looked fucking good, even on the new hardware. Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, Explorers reused Sprite work from Rescue team, but no one cared because the sprites and the game were fucking good. Sword and Shield looked like an upscaled DS Game. That actually made the graphics worse, since the models weren't actually built for this resolution.

Before I became a big fan of Dead Space I would see copies of Lost Planet 3 in gamestop and get confused over how similar it looked to Dead Space 3 in they few screenshots I had seen online. So Lost Planet is like a bug hunting game where you hunt down multiple hivemind like creatures but only difference is it's not a giant Tentacle monster made out of human flesh, it's like Earth Defense Force meets Monster Hunter or is that incorrect assessment?

Since you mentioned SoulCalibur in the lead up to Death by Degrees, there is actually one soulcalibur I can say is actually bad. SoulCalibur Legends. It was a Wii game that was a 3D beat 'em up that used the wii's motion controls to execute combos. It was very awkward and wasn't great to play. There was only one reason I even tried playing the game. It's surprise guest character. Lloyd freakin Irving. As in Tales of Symphonia Lloyd. They even had 2 soulcalibur themed remixes of Like a Glint of Light and Fatalize. I was excited to play as Lloyd in a soulcalibur game...but then I actually played the game. I beat it but...I don't think it was worth it.

Sucks to see Pokemon Battle Revolution on this list because for what it was designed for, it did really well. As a way to take your guys from Pokemon Diamond/Pearl and then battle online and make a custom avatar, complete with fashion, it was fantastic. Also it was great for training and making legal competitive Pokemon because you could earn items and TMs that were unobtainable via the DS games alone. Battle Revolution's online battles were also much smoother than the DS online connections, and it looked great, sounded great, ran great, and had a catchy soundtrack that I still use for some ringtones. I never liked the Gamecube Pokemon RPGs because of their characters and world I didn't care for/slow pacing and slow battling/everything taking forever because every battle being a double battle, so when it was cut out and condensed back into just battling in Battle Revolution, I was more than happy. Plus they sped the animations up in battles and made it all have a sleek presentation that worked really well with the Wiimote and interface. Also I'm pretty sure the game retailed for less than a regular MSRP Wii game? I mean, the game's title is "Battle Revolution" - it's exactly what it set out to do. If you're judging it based on other titles, might as well include the Gamecube Pokemon Box Ruby & Sapphire in this list for just being a glorified Pokemon storage system that requires both a GBA and an expensive Gamecube/GBA Link Cable 🤷♀🤷♀🤷♀

I think the shiny Groudon outfit is the rarest event / item across the *entire* Pokémon game series. the character customization had so much depth as well, being able to choose from Cool/Young/Little/Muscle & further equipping them with different aesthetic choices like hats, gloves, backpack, hair/eye colors.. this was honestly so nostalgic to watch lol.
